Philindicusanswered grow question 5 years ago
In theory it should increase your plants growth. I would go by what your plants tell you they like. My personal experience and opinion is they seem to like a break from the light for a few hours to recuperate. I usually run mine at 20 hours and get good growth and bud size. Some grower run them at 24/7 seem to shave a week or so off their harvest time. Since each strain is unique my theory is the more Ruderalis genetics the strain has the the faster the growth and harvest.👍

How do I drop my RH down when nothing works? Check Diary. Will defoliation be a good idea? Open tent door and leave it open?My 2x2 is starting to crowd. This is driving the RH to over 70%. Should I defoliate to help with crowding and RH? Or should I just leave it alone? RH in lung room is 48% Exhaust fan, high or low with a dehumidifier, doesn't work. What should I do? Defoliate? Thanks! Check diary.

Trimming/Defoliation late vegetation, just before flip to 12/12?I'm unsure about trimming/defoliation at this point: What's the goal for just before switching to 12/12? I've read to veg until your height is 1/2 to 1/3 the final height supported by the setup. I seem to have plenty of room still. How much do I trim under the canopy?

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

Routine Defoliation (cooldown between training)? AutoflowerHi GD, what should be good cooldown for light defo?
talking about cut 1-3 leaves that shading out and let them recovering a day or 2 is ok? or what to expect from plant to see if it ok from defo.
And do you heavy defo before stretching ? or just keep light defo till end

De-foliate in 5th week of flower? Scrogged Photoperiod.I'm currently in the middle of 5th week of flowering. I've noticed a big boom in leaves in the last weeks. Should she have a hair cut this far in, or will I be robbing "absorbing" leafs? She is Scrogged. 520watts LED, 5x5, LST, HST, Nutes.

When should I defoliate and/or prune?I'm trying to Scrog and Defoliate to improve yield and quality. When should I turn to 12/12 cycle and when to heavily defoliate? Indica strains so shouldn't grow that much height, right? Now I'm just spreadin them wider around the net since they are growing bushy/relatively short

What Would You Do: Day 40 Defol, Yes / No?One plant's fan leaves are building trichomes, but it has more fan leaves than the other plant & they are needing to be tucked daily.
Both plants never had issues with the previous defoliating. 3-4 wks left before chop day.
So, would you defoliate one last time?
